Hi all: I called St Lawrence, got directed to person who originally sold home. It is a Chesterfield, which was tweaked and became a Charleston in 1994. It was one of two best selling plans from 1994 until it was discontinued. (Most of their houses are bigger now than in 90's). Got chewed out "why did you have to let those guys know it is a STL home? Might spook them from buying one. For what it is worth, original sales agent, still working at STL noticed the house on the news when NC went missing, recognized it as one of theirs, said they had not heard anything else about NC since then, so I filled them in on all of you sleuthing. I will try to get the original Chesterfield floor plan, my dh does not have it, but I can get the Charleston, then some of you all that have been in can see how it differs.

You can tell him/her we already knew it was an STL home, it's in the Wake county records.
Thanks for confirming the model name with them!

For what it's worth, I really think press is press. It's not like people would say, "Oh, that was a St. Lawrence home! We definitely don't want one of those!!!"
I'd never heard of St. Lawrence until I saw they were the builders on the records. But that style is pretty standard, my neighborhood is full of houses that look very similar.
Also, and this may creep some of you out but I fell in-love with Laci Peterson's home. It's quaint, vintage and the style is amazing. And you know, Laci loved it and it showed. To me that's what was important in the end.

just had time to wade through the general thread and saw that daphne had listed the charleston floorplan, thanks, that will save me from hounding my husband. Sorry for the redundant thread. EN: I tend to agree with you, any publicity is good publicity, think the person I spoke to at STLH was being facetious. Think I'll go back to reading rather than posting but let me know if you all have any other STLH questions. Boo

YW, Boo. :) I just hope that the plan from 2002 looks the way you think it should. I couldn't find a Web site for St. Lawrence before that year.

My DH just took a look, says it is same Charleston that existed as of 1994, he does not know what changes were made from Chesterfield to Charleston, he thinks one of the engineers that likes to tinker, just tweaked it, but cannot swear to this.. Boo
